o'clock tea, and then 1t is already
buttered.

Education vs.. Mormonism.

It is an occasion of no slight i'm
portance in community like this of
Frederick when such man as the
Rev. DR.. Eshbach consents, for the
entire good of the people and in line
with his duties as minister of Gods
gospel. to talk to the people on a SUBJ
ject of such vital interest as that of
Mormonism. Such an occurrence
cannot be overlooked in the editorial
sanctum. 1t deserves the most patient
and thoughtful consideration of the
people, and as that consideration can
best be maintained through the col
umns ofthe newspapers we assure the
reverend lecturer, upon our part, at
least, a hearty support for the ideas
which have been born of conserva-
tive reasoning for the purpose of
combating fanatical arguments for
any one who has closely studied the
claims of the Mormon church and the
claims of its subjects will find every
thing in them but doctrine, sense or
comprehensive opinion.
Sifted to the very bottom and the
great church of Mormon, the great
doctrine which has been embodied in
the daily creed of the followers OF
Brigham Young, dissolves itself into
nothing more than a cunning policy
upon the part of few cunning men
to mould as they wish the ignorant
aud superstitious subjects who by
some strange fatality, or by some
hidden scheme upon the part of the
Mormon leaders, if you will, have
fallen into the hands of these same
leaders and are not capable of rising
above the state of ignorance and
superstition which binds them to the
false doctrine of the great church OF
Mormon as firmly as the early Hin
docs were tied to their mythologi-
cal beliefs. Viewing the Mormon
church and the Mormon doctrine in
this light. Recognizing it as true that
polygamy is only one of the many
evils which go to make up this great
organization of fraud and crime, both
temporal and spiritual. Satisfying
oneself that it Is the leaders and not

Protection Of Fish.

Seth Green, in the american AQri.
cultowiSt for March, makes this forci-
BILE appeal for the protection of fish
The matter for protect our fish
is a subject which should interest
every good citizen, whether he be a
fisherman or not; it is a question
which concerns the food supply of the
country, which is of vital Importance
to every man, woman and child.
The class Of nsnerman who do the
most damage are those who take the
fish during their spawning seasons.
1t is at this time that the fish come
into shallow water to complete their
task of pro-creation and are then
easily captured. All fish have GER
tain localities, to which they resort
at the season of the year when their
eggs are matured and ready to cast.
Different varieties seek different To-
calities. These localities are we'll
known to peaches. and where the
fish cohgregatein these places in large
schools, they draw their net around
them and frequently capture the
whole lot at single haul.
Another method through which
our inland waters are deprived of
hundreds of thousands of young fish
annually, is through the means of
murdurous spear and jack light. The
depredators approach the spawning
beds of the salmon trout, bass or 9TH
er fish at night; the strong light of
the jack, as it is called, thrown upon
the water, enables the spearman to
spear down in the clear water for sew.
eral feet; the darkness of the night
serves in the same way as a cloak
thrown over the head in the day time
in looking below the ice, through
which means, as many of your read
ers know, objects can be seen for a
considerable distance down. The fish
have apparently little fear of the
light, and the boat is easily padded
up to within few feet of the fish,
when the deadly spear is sent into
them. Not only are many captured
in this way, but many are injured
which are not brought to the boat, so
that they die by being pierced by the
tins of the spear, and death is the
result in a few hours or days, accord
ing to the injury. There are also
several other ways by which fish are
destroyed while on their spawning
beds, as by shooting, sharing, etc.,
but think have explained the mat
ter sufficiently, ana trust it will make
an impression on the minds of my
readers, so that they will exert their
influence to protect the fish from ilIe-
gal modes of capture at all times, and
their whole destruction, particularly
so when they are on their spawning
beds.

THEIR OWN VIEW OF THE NATTER.
London Saturday Review.

| Noh oe&ttiNag hcNlcN
A motion seems generally prevalent
in Europe that if only the harem
doors were opened, rush for liberty
would Immediately take place, and
many are the sympathies wasted on
the supposed prisoner of the Moham-
medan marriage tie. In reality both
men and women consider their state
far superior to that of Europeans.
The man argues thus: "You are a
slave from the moment you marry.
You cannot 90 out to lunch or din
ner or to your friends without taking
your wife with you. You cannot
even leave her alone tor few hours
without giving an account of youself.
Such "a state OF things would
be unbearable to me. | go where /
like and my wife goes where she
likes. | pay my servants to look al
ter her, and | am sure that she is
not flirting with other men when /
am not by her side. You are never
sure of this, etc. This is his line Of
argument. The woman says: MY
religion forbids me TO look upon 9TH
or men but my husband. If / chang
ed my religion, perhaps | should like
to mix up with every fellow ! came
across but as long as | am a Mo-
hammedan | detest the thought of it.
| cover my face from the sight of the
world, as your women cover their
bodies. As 70 being watched and
guarded, it is compliment which
shows how much my husband cares
for me. If he were to leave me to
do what liked, | should know he
did not care for me, and should feel
deeply insulted. 1t is difficult for
the Western mind to grasp the i'm
mense guilt between our ideas and
theirs. Their reasoning is falacious
and almost ridiculous from our stand
point, but it is good enough from
theirs. And therefore as long as the
Mohammedan religion lasts so long
will the harem exist. And its exist
ence is, on the whole, happy and
contented one, in spite Of all the
reasoning which may be brought to
show that it ought to be miserable.
